Sally Moylan – ACT

Being a strong Wiradjuri woman, Sally Moylan’s background and cultural values translate to her work environment in challenging situations, where she is not afraid to speak up from a position of knowledge and integrity. Her ability to influence non-Indigenous staff and decision-makers to consider incorporating Indigenous knowledge into modern-day land management practices has been a distinct asset. In 2014, Sally won both the ACT and National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Student of the Year Awards that are coordinated by the Department of Education. She is integral to ACT Parks and Conservation Service, playing an instrumental role in the region’s Grassland Restoration Project and the Murumbung Ranger Network.
